Javducation - Happy Valentine Lunar New Year

Computer down for a week with weekend duty to cover, what's more can i ask for? But nevertheless i still learn:

1) That i have this 'auntie, uncle come buy this shirt, buy this shoe' look. Its not once but FIVE times during different occasion i been asked whether there is a size M for this shirt or is there a different colour for this bag.

2) That its bad enough not to have a date from the opposite sex during valentine day, but it worst enough when you are being scolded a 'pu bor' by your fellow friend when you ask him for a bachelor nights out.

3) That the name 林志源 is a good name to market your bak kwa (barbecued meat).

4) That have u ever wondered why is the chinese name for Darlie toothpaste is 黑人牙膏 when the man on the toothpaste is a white?

5) That if you do not want to queue up to buy bak kwa, you can always ask you fellow workers to queue up for you.

6) That wasting time queuing up to buy bak kwa on your birthday can be consider meaningful.

7) That one can even take leave from work just to queue up to buy bak kwa. Only Chinese New Year then can eat bak kwa?

Excerpt:

'Ms Chin, a 21-year-old accountant had taken leave from work
to spend day with her boyfriend

" Its quite meaningful spending today like this. This bak kwa will be a wonderful treat for our friends and relatives during Chinese New Year," she said.

8) That NTUC got another new source of revenue other than their entertainment, foodfare, Fairprice and that's banking. Sooner or later, we might even see NTUC opening up casinos, nightclubs and even prostitution ring. Shop and gamble at the same time!

9) That every year i got the same old new year wish, be it New Year or Lunar New Year, i always got the same wish. But still, every new year, same old wish, when will mine be granted?

10) That 2007 is gonna be a tougher year than 2006 i feel but nevertheless, Happy Lunar New Year to all my readers all there. Enjoy the festive season!
